Eligible providers directly impacted by COVID-19 can apply for funding for each impacted service for the periods between the date on which the resident, staff member or client is tested for COVID-19 and the date on which direct COVID-19 impacts are resolved (i.e. no infected or isolated residents, staff members or clients).
The COVID-19 Aged Care Support Program started on 27 March 2020 and has already provided more than $61m in funding, with the extension adding a further $29.9m in support.
The Grant will remain open from yesterday June 4, 2021 until 31 March 2022.
